The matching is pretty terrible tonight, which is a shame as I've had very little problems joining this event over the past week.
Of the two races that I did connect to, both times I appeared sitting in the middle of turn 1, every other time it's the dreaded Fail To Connect
Anyone else having this problem tonight?
Going to keep trying, so hopefully I'll see you guys shortly đź‘Ť

Major problems again. 10-12 slots open constantly, but only few players managed to connect and make it to the grid.
Special thanks for clean and fair racing goes to oldnail, we had some good battles there! I also noticed we have kind of similar overtaking etiquette, it was such a pleasure to race with you. It nearly got messy couple times in 2nd and 3rd sectors (different tire wear?) but we survived. đź‘Ť

I had a great time last night guys. Cheers to the GTHQ_lads - some really great pace shown.
Suprised myself with 2nd in the first race (started from 11th) and had a chance for 1st on the secondrace starting from 9th (but I slowed down because of a neutral mishap) so I'm just happy I could keep up with you all.
I notice most people were racing on S2s, and I was racing on S3s. The S2 car aren't nearly as good as the S3s in corners (more so than usual - I was able to reel in Spyrrari with quite easily on the corners) but the S2s were great on the straights (go figure).
The last couple of races (with me, Toivonen and Spyrrari amongst others) showed that whoever was first to the corner couldn't really be over taken once in the corner, and the S2 chaps knew this. Close racing was had, but it was a little annoying knowing your S3s were going to waste being stuck behind someone with S2s who inevitably got to the corner first.
It was a great night's racing and I thank everyone involved - I had an absolute blast.
I might of just nabbed the back of Spyrrari's car once, so I'm sorry for that. If theres a gun-metal grey smear across the back of your pristine white M3, Spyrrari, I'll come over and clean it off.

Hi Guys!
Sorry, I let it slip for a while, but now I finally got round to updating all the times, quiet a bit after those few days! Nice to see plenty of activity and over 20 peeps on the leader board đź‘Ť, and with some IMPRESSIVE times too đź‘Ť
Gonna jump in for a few afternoon races now, hope to see some of you!

Yes we had some nice races, as you say a few minor bumps due to I think me being on S2's and you having S3's on the front? giving you better turn in and my earlier braking taking you by surprise sometimes!

Sweet first grid of 12, unfortunately with a yellow NSX inbetween who used me as an extra brake pad a couple of times đź‘Ž
On the start I got squished between him and a beemer from GTHQ, causing me to bounce around like a pinball, one or two guys fell off, sorry about that, but I don't think I had fault, but nevertheless apologies. Edit: I might add that the start incident was actually nobodies fault really, just a typical race start situation....

Finally got into the 51's in free run today. Will do couple more laps, then post a new time. Won't be today though.
Thanks to everyone for some awesome races

Great laps from so many, 51.6 is a sick lap time.
I tried to better my lap time in free run for a while today, I managed to shave a tiny bit off. I lost a fair bit in turn 2, could have been a 51.8 so easy Now @ 1'51.937 
Let's see all those fast laps uploaded at GTDB đź‘Ť

I was involved in a few, really awesome. I was on S3's aswell. I really need that extra grip in the corners, shame you lost to much straigt line speed compare to the S2's. But what the hell, aslong the races are enjoyable.
Extra thanks to Spyrrari for pulling me to a new PB overall race time record.
